It's the only time Merc stacks fell off and could be found.

OMC had a sled powered by a 231 cubic inch Buick V-6 call Pagasis that broke 200 mph on the Bonneville salt flats. It supposedly around somewhere in like Pa??? The motor was turned sideways so the crank was spinning in the right dierection.
Bills right. did they use a 90 degree gear box or something to connect the torque convertor?

Pegasus used a pair of 125 v4s.

Bill I disctinctly remember a 231 V-6 Buick with a sign at the 1971 boat show in Chicago and the list of the record run, it was like 230 give or take....I'm not saying my then 14 year old mind slipped, but I do have a mind like a steel trap....Is it at all possible the two 125's were installed after the 231 Buick? The reason
I know the Buick is I had a Jeep with a 231 that I was working on....

The only engines in Pegasus were OMC V4's. Dick Wlezien was the project engineer. The engines were KC/KR variants with stacks. Take a look at the picture, that is not snow they were running on.

In the ad posted above it says "regular" fuel, I wonder if that is true?
I think 87 octane regular would eat up a KC/KR type powerhead at those compression ratios.
